Back with the Books: Learning Old English at the University of Oxford

I’m back! I missed writing on this blog, but over these first few weeks of university I’ve gotten up to plenty of (essay) writing for my course tutors which will make my writing here much more worth reading. So, you might know that one of the things that makes the English course at Oxford stand out is its sheer breadth, as it spans across the history of English literature, particularly Old English literature. With tutorials, classes and lectures now in full swing, I’ve sat down to record my first impressions of studying Old English literature at the University of Oxford. Apologies this is so long, but I put together this video on a very impromptu basis in the little breathing room between my scheduled study hours. Nevertheless, hope you enjoy watching this first little vignette of my academic life at Oxford!

Keep reading and readjoicing,
